Abstract:

We examine the impact of the 2002-07 civil conflict in Cote d'Ivoire on children's health status measured by height-for-age. We use pre- and post-war survey data coupled with information on the location of violent incidents to capture exposure to the conflict of children born during 1997-2007. Our results indicate that children from regions more affected by the conflict suffered significant health setbacks compared with children from less affected regions. Further, household-level victimization -- such as war-related economic stress, health stress, and displacement -- has a large and negative effect on child health in conflict-affected regions.

Abstract:

Abstract Objectives Poor complementary feeding practices pose a major challenge for early childhood growth and development in Côte d'Ivoire, where more than 20% children under five suffer from stunting. We aimed to examine the trends and risk factors of suboptimal complementary feeding among children aged 6–23 months in Côte d'Ivoire. Methods We estimated the country-level prevalence, trends, and risk factors of four complementary feeding indicators: introduction of complementary foods (INTRO), minimum meal frequency (MMF), minimum dietary diversity (MDD), and minimum acceptable diet (MAD). Data was extracted from Demographic and Health Surveys (1994 to 2011) and Multiple Indicator Cluster Surveys (2000–2016) to estimate the complementary feeding indicators for children between 6 to 23 months in Côte d'Ivoire. Multilevel logistic regression models were used to identify factors associated with these complementary feeding indicators in 2016. Results On average, 59.2% of children aged 6–8 months achieved INTRO between 1994–2016. In 2016, the proportion of children aged 6–8 months meeting INTRO was 65.5% showing an increase of around 15 percentage points from 2006. Between 2011 – 2016, the proportion of children aged 6–23 months meeting MMF, MDD, and MAD also increased from 40.2% to 47.7%, 11.3% to 26.0%, and 4.6% to 12.5%, respectively. Child age (MDD, MAD), maternal education (INTRO), and breastfeeding status (MMF, MAD) were significantly and positively associated with achieving at least one of the complementary feeding practices: INTRO, MMF, MDD, and MAD. Higher household wealth was significantly associated with greater odds of achieving all four complementary feeding criteria compared to poorer households Conclusions Suboptimal complementary feeding practices remain a problem and disparities in complementary feeding still exist in Côte d'Ivoire. However, complementary feeding practices have improved in the past decade. Additional research is needed to understand the policy and programmatic efforts that may explain the promising trends of complementary feeding practices in Côte d'Ivoire.

Abstract:

This article will discuss Ferrero Group's influence on the enhancement of agricultural cocoa in Côte d'Ivoire. Using the objective qualitative method to know how far that influence has been awarded the Ferrero Group to the Côte d'Ivoire country in agriculture cocoa. Côte d'Ivoire is a developing country that can say it still lacks knowledge in agriculture even though 40% of world cocoa comes from Côte d'Ivoire. Respond matter this is the Ferrero Group initiative to empower farmers' existing chocolate with three main pillars, namely: 1). Increase the level of life for farmers and communities 2). Protect the right of children 3). Protect natural capital. Through the Cocoa Horizons program, Ferrero Farming Values return the right child, agroforestry, and against deforestation. Through its programs, the Ferrero Group is capable of pushing agriculture Côte d'Ivoire cocoa by providing knowledge transfer and technology transfer to optimize agriculture cocoa. Ferrero also delivers education for the public will haka children for learning and play through the Ferrero Hazelnut Company Child Labor Monitoring & Remediation System. As well as building sustainable agriculture without damage natural through agroforestry and against deforestation. Keywords: Cocoa Agroforestry, Cocoa Horizons, Deforestation, Ferrero Farming Values.

Abstract:

Many HIV-1-seropositive women in Africa who are offered antiretroviral prophylaxis to prevent mother-to-child transmission (MTCT) of HIV do not begin interventions. Research on barriers to participation has not addressed the possible effects of women's sociocultural and economic circumstances. We examined these factors at an MTCT prevention programme in Abidjan, Côte d'Ivoire. We interviewed two groups of women after they had received HIV-positive test results and had been invited by the programme staff to return for monthly follow-up visits before beginning short-course zidovudine prophylaxis. Participants ( n = 30) completed follow-up visits and prophylaxis. Non-participants ( n = 27) refused or discontinued follow-up visits and did not begin zidovudine. Fewer non-participants had been born in Côte d'Ivoire (67% vs. 97%) or were Ivorian nationals (48% vs. 77%); they had lived in the country for less time (21 vs. 26 median years). They were less likely to be French-literate (37% vs. 77%), and more of them reported having had Koranic education only (18% vs. 0). They more often reported miscarriages, stillbirths, or infant deaths (69% vs. 33%), and had partners with low-ranked jobs (63% vs. 30%). Our findings suggest that the non-participants were more marginal socioculturally and economically in Ivorian society than participants. Greater attention to mitigating the effects of broader structural factors on women's participation in interventions may increase the effectiveness of MTCT prevention in Africa.

Abstract:

Anogeissus leiocarpus (Combretaceae) (DC.) Guill. & Perr. is a plant found in West Africa, from Senegal to Cameroon and extending to Ethiopia and East Africa. In the north of Côte d’Ivoire, this plant is commonly used by livestock farmers to treat various pathologies, including digestive and gastrointestinal disorders. The aim of this study was to determine the phenolic compound content and antioxidant properties of 70% hydroethanol and aqueous extracts of A. leiocarpus’ leaves. Phenolic compound contents were determined by spectrophotometric methods. Antioxidant activities were assessed using ABTS, DPPH and FRAP tests. The 70% hydroethanolic and aqueous extracts of A. leiocarpus presented roughly equivalent concentrations of total polyphenols (608.41 and 558.25 mg EAG/g respectively). However, the hydroethanolic extract was richer in flavonoids (539.60 mg EQ/g) than the aqueous extract (388.95 mg EQ/g). In addition, the average inhibition rate of the ABTS radical in the presence of the 70% hydroethanol extract was 11.56 µM Trolox equivalent/g, compared with 8.32 µM Trolox equivalent/g with the aqueous extract. The average chelation percentages were 31.93% (70% hydroethanol extract) and 20.92% (aqueous extract). As for the reduction of DPPH radical, the ICs50 for the 70% hydroethanol and aqueous extracts were 4.4 mg/mL and 6.0 mg/mL respectively. This study confirms that Anogeissus leiocarpus is a plant containing phenolic compounds. The presence of these phenolic compounds in this plant, together with its antioxidant activities with low values (IC50), could justify its widespread use by livestock farmers in northern Côte d'Ivoire, particularly those rearing broiler chickens.

Abstract:

Many small reservoirs in Northern Côte d'Ivoire are used for crop irrigation, livestock rearing or fishing. They generate moderated ichthyological catches for local populations. Thus, strategies for their sustainable exploitation should be put in place. This study was conducted to provide the first data on fishing activity on the Lavononkaha Dam Lake. From June 2020 to July 2021, field studies were undertaken with the objectives of characterising fishing gears used, studying catch composition, and evaluating exploitation parameters of the Oreochromis niloticus stock. Results obtained stated the practice of recreational fishing by 41 anglers. These fishermen used a total of 380 fishing lines, 92.11% of which were single fishing rod. Ten fish species were identified in catches with a particular abundance of Oreochromis niloticus (48.33%). In the fishery, this species has a longevity tmax of 3.7 years and grows towards asymptotic length L∞=24.68 cm at a growth rate K=0.810/year. Despite the high number of fishing gears used, the stock of the species is underexploited (E=0.34) and half of the specimens are caught after reaching sexual maturity. Thus, the possibilities of increasing fishing effort to increase yields of this species exist within certain limits to be specified. Vol. 9, No. 2, August 2022: 229-238

Abstract:

The dynamics of Bouaflé, an urban locality in the center-west of Côte d'Ivoire, faces a double challenge. On the one hand, the plight related to the mortality of the under-five stands out as a threat to their future. On the other hand, owing to lack of drinking water in the city as well as harmful effects of polluting activities on the local environment, environmental pathologies affect the urban space. From available documents on this city supplemented by field surveys, this study showcases an inventory of the determining factors of infant and child mortality in Bouaflé and highlights the limitations of local governance in the quest for a sustainable development for the capital city of the Marahoué.

Abstract:

The aim of this study was to characterize cattle (Bos Taurus) breading system in savannah and forest areas in Côte d'Ivoire. To achieve this objective, a formal survey was carried out among 490 breeders. It was carried out by surveys and interviews to characterize the farms. The rearing system, the different breeds bred, the size of the herd, the mode of reproduction and the other associated animal species with cattle breading were observed. The observations were compared by department and agro-ecological zone. The results showed two farming systems. These are the transhumant system and sedentary system. The sedentary system is more used (P<0.05), i.e. 79% of breeders. However, the transhumant system is still common in savannah areas. The livestock was composed mainly of zebu 28%, mestizos 33% and mixed (Zebu, mestizos, Méré, N’dama and Baoulé breeds). The local breeds Méré, Ndama and Baoulé represented less than 2% of the livestock. The size of the herd was less than 100 head in majority (P<0.05). Cattle farming was often associated with traditional poultry farming. This activity is secondary for 70.6% of breeders. The reproductive system was carried out in an uncontrolled manner. The breeding males were in the herd all the time.

Abstract:

Pregnancy is a physiological condition that requires prenatal followup during which medical care ensures that complications in childbirth are prevented and that a healthy child is born as much as possible. It is therefore important for pregnant women to undergo a number of clinical examinations, including blood tests and HIV / AIDS testing, which are in the process of being integrated into the monitoring of women at the primary health care. However, pregnant women do not systematically use these practices in Urban Sanitary Training in Côte d'Ivoire generally and in Bouaké in particular. The free choice of women to submit to the various tests, the health benefits of which are the subject of recurrent information campaigns, does not always lead to their rigorous application during prenatal consultations. It therefore appears that the resistances or the sometimes unsystematic choices of acceptance of the tests and their referents become the object of reflection in the face of the challenge of improving the safe motherhood rate and the attainment of a generation without HIV-AIDS. What are the social attitudes and perceptions related to blood tests and HIV-AIDS testing in pregnant women ? The aim of this study is to understand the social logics underlying the positive or negative attitude of pregnant women to blood tests and the HIV-AIDS test. To address this concern, an essentially qualitative study was carried out among 16 pregnant women and the medical staff of the Urban Sanitary Formation of Ahougnansou in Bouaké (Côte d'Ivoire). The main finding of this study is that attitudes of pregnant women have links to socially situated representations of the disease, stigma, education, income, and perceived risks to social and marital relationships.

Abstract:

The objectives of this study were (1) to examine risk factors for Schistosoma mansoni infection among schoolchildren living in western Côte d'Ivoire, and (2) to carry forward spatial risk prediction and mapping at non-sampled locations. First, demographic and socio-economic data were obtained from 3818 children, aged 6–16 years, from 55 schools. Second, a single stool sample was examined from each child by the Kato-Katz technique to assess infection status of S. mansoni and its intensity. Third, remotely sensed environmental data were derived from satellite imagery and digitized ground maps. With these databases a comprehensive geographical information system was established. Bayesian variogram models were applied for spatial risk modelling and prediction. The infection prevalence of S. mansoni was 38·9%, ranging from 0% to 89·3% among schools. Results showed that age, sex, the richest wealth quintile, elevation and rainfall explained the geographical variation of the school prevalences of S. mansoni infection. The goodness of fit of different spatial models revealed that age, sex and socio-economic status had a stronger influence on infection prevalence than environmental covariates. The generated risk map can be used by decision-makers for the design and implementation of schistosomiasis control in this setting. If successfully validated elsewhere, this approach can guide control programmes quite generally.

Abstract:

For more than two decades, we have believed that coffee and cocoa plantations were considered as the best places for children labour in rural work. However, the schools which are supposed to educate them have become places where children labour is manifested through school cooperatives. In fact, the older children whose ages range from 10 to 15 are employed on the cashew and cotton plantations on behalf of these cooperatives which must teach them the spirit of cooperation and associative life. School cooperatives in Sinematialy (northern Côte d’Ivoire) are the examples. Thus, the present study aims to understand the social logics underlying the attitude of the various actors involved in this phenomenon of child labour through school cooperatives, in spite of the national context of fight against child labour. On the methodological level, the study is based on a qualitative approach including interviews with the different categories of actors involved.

Abstract:

Une étude portant sur les modalités d’élevage et le parasitisme digestif des ovins a été réalisée dans 3 régions du centre de la Côte d’Ivoire, d’Août 2017 à Avril 2018. Elle a comporté une enquête par questionnaire menée dans 25 élevages, et une enquête coprologique effectuée sur 550 ovins dans 12 de ces élevages. Les résultats de l’enquête par questionnaire montrent que le système de production le plus répandu demeure le système traditionnel (68% des élevages), suivi du système amélioré semi-intensif (20%) et enfin du système moderne intensif (12%). Les 3 élevages modernes de l’étude se sont révélés d’un niveau élevé de technicité et de productivité ; cependant les mesures d’hygiène peuvent encore y être améliorées. Les élevages traditionnels sont d’un niveau sanitaire médiocre, qui se traduit par un niveau d’infestation parasitaire des ovins plus élevé. En effet, la charge parasitaire moyenne des ovins des élevages traditionnels était de 428,0 œufs par gramme (opg) de fèces avec 81,7% des animaux excrétant moins de 500 opg ; pour les élevages semiintensifs, la moyenne était de 198,7 opg avec 84,1% des ovins excrétant moins de 500 opg ; et pour les élevages modernes intensifs, la moyenne était de 193,0 opg avec 99,2% des ovins excrétant moins de 500 opg. Ces différences étaient statistiquement significatives. L’identification des œufs par les examens coprologiques a permis de mettre en évidence la présence de strongles digestifs, de Trichuris sp, de Strongyloides papillosus, de Moniezia sp et des ookystes de coccidies du genre Eimeria. L’identification des espèces parasitaires après la coproculture a révélé que 75% des larves appartiennent au genre Haemonchus, 8,6% au genre Trichostrongylus, 8,2% au genre Strongyloides, 8% au genre Cooperia et 0,2% au genre Oesophagostomum. Apala et al., 2020 Journal of Animal & Plant Sciences (J.Anim.Plant Sci.

It included a questionnaire survey conducted on 25 farms and a coprological study- carried out on 550 sheep in 12 of these farms. The results of the questionnaire survey showed that the most widespread production system remains the traditional system (68% of the farms), followed by the improved semi-intensive system (20%) and finally the modern intensive system (12%). The three modern farming methods in the study proved to be of high-level technicality and productivity, however, hygiene measures can still be improved. Traditional herds are of a poor health level, which results in a higher level of parasitic infestation of sheep. In fact, the average parasite burden of sheep in traditional farms was 428.0 eggs per gram (epg) of faeces with 81.7% of animals excreting less than 500 epg; for semi-intensive farms. The average was 198.7 epg with 84.1% of sheep excreting less than 500 epg; and for intensive modern breeding, the average was 193.0 epg with 99.2% of sheep excreting less than 500 epg. The identification of the eggs by the coprological examinations revealed the presence of digestive strongles, Trichuris sp, Strongyloides papillosus, Moniezia sp and coccidia oocysts of the genus Eimeria. Identification of parasite species after stool culture revealed that 75% of the larvae belong to the genus Haemonchus, 8.6% to the genus Trichostrongylus, 8.2% to the genus Strongyloides, 8% to the genus Cooperia and 0.2% to the genus Oesophagostomum.

Abstract:

Child malnutrition is still a public health problem in Côte d'Ivoire, mainly due to poor feeding practice linked to the low nutritional value of the staple foods used for child nutrition. However, the introduction of tigernut, proteins and lipids rich tuber, in the dietary habits of these children could constitute an interesting nutritional alternative to solve this problem. The objective of this work was to valorize the tigernut-based porridges for their use as complementary food in the diet of weaning children. To this end, physicochemical and organoleptic characteristics of four formulations AB1, AB4, RB2 and SB3 were studied. The atadjon formulations, especially AB1, presented the highest density in energy (95.70 Kcal/100g), protein (5.37 %), lipids (3.8 %) and the lowest contents in anti-nutrients with 2.17% in fiber, 36.6% in oxalates, 65.54% in tannin and 0% in phytates, contrary to the rice (RB2) and tigernut (SB3) control porridges. In addition, the atadjon formulations AB4 and AB1 were preferred to the control because of their sweet taste, tigernut flavor, brown color and flowability according to PCA analysis. Thus, this study indicates that these traditionally prepared porridges could be suitable for children receiving an average level of breastfeeding and three meals per day.

Abstract:

AbstractMemory is often considered a monopoly of adults and older children: the younger the child, the less significant the capacity for recollecting. In Côte d'Ivoire, the Beng posit a radically different theory of cognitive development: adults say that the younger the child, the keener the memory. Moreover, such recall is of a specific sort – infants allegedly hold strong memories of a previous existence before birth (wrugbe), where people reportedly live harmoniously and there is never material want. Nevertheless, remembering this space of plenitude can prove agonizing for babies, making their hold on life precarious, and a distressing array of culturally shaped diseases threaten their survival. Protecting against illness requires an elaborate bathing, jewellery and make-up routine twice daily that begins at birth and continues for the first year. All this somatic activity is meant to lure the child fully and definitively into this world, and to counteract the strong call of the afterlife that adults say is created by the infant's own memories. Why is wrugbe, as purportedly remembered by infants, envisaged as a place of plenitude? And why is it located in an historically identified past? In this essay – which is necessarily to some extent speculative given its subject of infant memory – I explore the allegorical implications of the Beng afterlife, suggesting that the attribution of heightened infant memory of an idyllic wrugbe serves as an indirect critique of French colonialism and its aftermath. I conclude by discussing the ways in which memory and forgetting are mutually constructed, with the Beng model offering substantial support for the contention that reproduction in general – and babies in particular – are crucial to this intertwined process.

Abstract:

The aim of this paper is to describe the adherence of African HIV+ women to the counselling provided after announcement of the result of the HIV test during pregnancy, focusing on early weaning to reduce post-natal transmission, protected sexual intercourse to avoid sexual transmission, and contraceptive use to avoid unexpected pregnancies. In 1999-2000, a questionnaire on sexual and reproductive behaviours was administered to 149 HIV+ women followed in post-partum, informed and counselled in the ANRS 049 DITRAME project in Abidjan. Côte d'Ivoire. Duration of breastfeeding, post-partum amenorrhea and abstinence, contraceptive use and condom use were measured. Incidence of pregnancies during the first 24 months post partum was estimated and modelled by a Cox regression model. Average duration of breastfeeding was 7.9 months, average duration of post partum abstinence was 12.0 months, and 39% of women used contraceptives at the time of the survey. Frequency of condom use was 13%. Incidence of pregnancies was 16.5 per 100 women-years at risk. Half of these pregnancies were not desired and a third were terminated by induced abortion. The significant determinants of the pregnancy occurrence were the death of the previous child, the cessation of breastfeeding, the cessation of the post partum abstinence, and higher education. In conclusion, if counselling on early weaning can be followed by the HIV+ women, it is not easily the case for condom and contraceptive use. Hence, pregnancy incidence in the post-partum follow-up was high. The main strategy of these HIV+ women to avoid unexpected pregnancies as well as sexual transmission of HIV seems to be an increase of the duration of post-partum abstinence. The most educated women who cannot easily adopt this strategy are particularly exposed to unwanted pregnancies.

Abstract:

The aim of this study was to produce a suitable low-cost feeds for African catfish Clarias gariepinus rearing in Côte d'Ivoire fish farms. Three isoproteic (35% protein level) dry feeds were formulated and produced with the local available feedstuffs of Sudano Guinean 1 (SG1), Sudano Guinean 2 (SG2) and Guinean (G) Côte d’Ivoire agro ecological areas. Then, Clarias gariepinus juveniles initial mean weight 12.98±1.23 g were fed with these three feeds at 5% of the total biomass two times (9:00 am and 05:00 pm) per day during 120 days. Each feed was hand distributed in the triplicate fish groups stocked in earthen ponds at 3 fish/m2. At the end of the trial, growth data showed significant higher growth with fish fed feeds G and SG2 than those of fish fed feed SG1. The weight gains of fish varied between 459.95 ± 101.31 (SG1) and 664.74±67.45 (G) g with the daily weight gain oscillated between 3.83±0.84 (SG1) and 5.54±0.56 (G) g/day. The best feed efficiency values were recorded with fish fed feeds G and SG2. Nutritional compositions recorded from the body of fish fed feed G (21.46±0.01 %) showed highest protein values when the body of fish fed with feed SG1 presented the highest moisture (77.92±0.17 %) and crude lipid (1.77±0.14 %) contents. Results showed that the three feeds produced were suitable for a good growth of Clarias gariepinus juveniles rearing in earthen ponds, however, the best growth and feeds efficiency results were recorded with feeds G and SG2.

Abstract:

Background: In Côte d’Ivoire, as in most developing countries, the reference values of hematological indices currently in use come from data collected from populations living in industrialized countries. The aim of this study was to determine variations in the child's blood count in Cote d'Ivoire. Materials and Methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study has focused on 310 children (172 girls and 138 boys) aged 5 to 11 years selected from three municipalities of Abidjan. Blood samples were taken from each child in order to assess the parameters of the blood count. Results: The results revealed that the means of the different hematological parameters (red blood cells, hemoglobin, hematocrit, white blood cells, neutrophils, eosinophils, monocyte, mean corpuscular volume, mean corpuscular hemoglobin and mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration) were in accordance with the normal physiological reference values from the literature apart lymphocyte. The rate of lymphocytes (51.3 ± 0.5) was higher overall. All the parameters did not indicate significant differences between girls and boys (p > 0.05) except mean corpuscular volume, and mean corpuscular hemoglobin that were statistically different by sex (p < 0.05). The percentage of having a rate of haemoglobin lower than 11.5 decreased significantly (p˂0.005) when the age increased. In addition, the rate of hemoglobin and hematocrit increased slightly starting from the age of 8 years. There is a significant difference (p < 0.05) in hemoglobin level between girls and boys in the age group of 9 years. Leukopenia is observed in a minority of children in the age groups of 5, 6, 7, 8, and 10 years. Conclusion: Some hematological parameters were different from other data published in the literature, which suggested a local development of reference values for children.

Abstract:

AbstractLiteracy and numeracy are correlated throughout development, however, our understanding of this relation is limited. We explored the predictors of literacy and numeracy covariance (i.e., shared fluency between literacy and numeracy) in children (N = 1167, girls = 563) in rural Côte d'Ivoire, with specific focus on how developmental timing of instruction may relate to covariance. Many Ivorian children experience late enrollment and grade repetition, leading to variation in age‐for‐grade; participants were between grades 1 to 6, but their ages ranged from 5 to 15 (M = 9.19, SD = 2.07). Phonological awareness, numerical magnitude, ordinality, working memory, and inhibitory control were cognitive predictors of covariance. Age‐for‐grade was negatively related to covariance suggesting that covariance is related to timing of instruction.

Abstract:

In Nestlé USA, Inc. v. Doe, et al., former child slaves who were trafficked into Côte d'Ivoire to work on cocoa farms filed suit under the Alien Tort Statute (ATS) against U.S.-based companies that purchase cocoa from and provide other support to the farms, alleging that the companies aided and abetted child slavery. By an 8–1 vote, the Supreme Court held that the case involved an impermissible extraterritorial application of the ATS under the Court's precedent in Kiobel. The Court declined to resolve whether domestic corporations may be held liable under the ATS, although five justices across several opinions expressed the view that such corporations are not immune from ATS suits. The question of whether the Court should ever create new causes of action under the ATS prompted significant debate, with three justices suggesting that they would overrule Sosa v. Álvarez-Machain and a fourth indicating that there are strong arguments to reject judicial creation of any new ATS causes of action.

Abstract:

BackgroundStunted physical growth during early childhood is a marker of chronic undernutrition, and the adverse life circumstances that underlie it. These have the potential to disrupt normal brain development and the acquisition of foundational cognitive, language, social and motor skills. Stunting is prevalent in most low-and middle-income countries. Because the prevention of stunting requires large-scale structural and attitudinal changes, several psycho-educational interventions have been developed to mitigate the adverse association between early stunting and skill development. However, the resource-intensive nature of custom-designed interventions limit their sustainability and scalability in resource-limited settings. This study explored the possibility that available resources that promote positive development (existing preschool education programs, and no- or low-cost home-based learning activities and resources) may protect against any negative association between stunting and the acquisition of foundational skills required for academic learning and adaptation at school.MethodData for 36-to 59-month-old children (n = 3,522; M = 46.7 months; 51.2% male; 74.1% rural) were drawn from the most recent Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey conducted in Côte d'Ivoire (MICS5, 2016). Stunting was assessed using the WHO Child Growth Standards. Preschool attendance and home learning activities and resources were assessed by maternal report. School readiness was assessed using the 8-item form of the Early Child Development Index (ECDI).ResultsA high percentage of children met the criteria for stunting (28.5%; 19.7% moderate; 8.8% severe). There were marked urban–rural differences in the prevalence of stunting, rates of preschool attendance, home learning activities and resources, children's school readiness scores, and the relationships between stunting, the protective factors and school readiness scores. These urban–rural differences in ECDI scores could be fully explained by differences between these settings in stunting and the protective factors. However, only two protective factors (access to books and home-based activities that promote learning) made independent contributions to variance in ECDI scores. There was tentative evidence that stunted children whose homes provided highly diverse learning activities and multiple types of learning resources were more likely than those who did not to have a high level of school readiness.ConclusionCapitalizing on the existing practices of families that show positive deviance in caregiving may provide a basis for culturally appropriate, low-cost interventions to improve school readiness among children in low- and middle-income countries, including children with stunted growth.

Full text

Abstract:

The issue that underlies a worrying question of maternal and child health in Côte d'Ivoire is that of social logic. Social logic is perceived as "cultural constructions of actors with regard to morbidity that cause to adopt reproductive health care". Based on this understanding, the concept of social logic in reproductive health is similar to a paradigm that highlights the various factors that structure and organise sociological resistance to mothers' openness to healthy reproductive behaviours; that is, openness to change for sustainable reproductive health. Far from becoming and remaining a prisoner of blind culturalism with the social logic that generates the health of mothers, new-borns and children, practically-relevant questions are raised. Issues of "bad governance", socio-cultural representations and behaviours in conflict with modern epidemiological standards are addressed in a culturally-sensitive manner, an important issue for the provision of care focused on the needs of mothers seeking answers to health problems. Developing these original community characteristics helps to orient a reading list in a socioanthropological perspective with a view to explaining and understanding different problems encountered, experiences acquired by social actors during the implementation of antenatal, postnatal and family planning care. This context of building logic with regard to reproductive health care is key to identifying real bottlenecks in maternity services and achieving efficient management of maternal, new-born and child health care for the benefit of populations and actors in the public health sector.

Abstract:

Background: Adolescents living with perinatally-acquired HIV (APHIV) face challenges including HIV serostatus disclosure. We assessed their 24-month outcomes in relation to the disclosure of their own HIV serostatus.Methods: Nested within the International epidemiologic Database to Evaluate AIDS pediatric West African prospective cohort (IeDEA pWADA), the COHADO cohort included antiretroviral (ART)-treated APHIV aged 10–19 years, enrolled in HIV care before the age of 10 years, in Abidjan (Côte d'Ivoire) and Lomé (Togo) in 2015. We measured the HIV serostatus disclosure at baseline and after 24 months and analyzed its association with a favorable combined 24-month outcome using logistic regression. The 24-month combined clinical immuno-virological outcome was defined as unfavorable when either death, loss to follow-up, progression to WHO-AIDS stage, a decrease of CD4 count >10% compared to baseline, or a detectable viral load (VL > 50 copies/mL) occurred at 24 months.Results: Overall, 209 APHIV were included (51.6% = Abidjan, 54.5% = females). At inclusion, the median CD4 cell count was 521/mm3 [IQR (281–757)]; 29.6% had a VL measurement, of whom, 3.2% were virologically suppressed. APHIV were younger in Lomé {median age: 12 years [interquartile range (IQR): 11–15]} compared to Abidjan [14 years (IQR: 12–15, p = 0.01)]. Full HIV-disclosure increased from 41.6% at inclusion to 74.1% after 24 months. After 24 months of follow-up, six (2.9%) died, eight (3.8%) were lost to follow-up, and four (1.9%) were transferred out. Overall, 73.7% did not progress to the WHO-AIDS stage, and 62.7% had a CD4 count above (±10%) of the baseline value (48.6% in Abidjan vs. 69.0% in Lomé, p < 0.001). Among the 83.7% with VL measurement, 48.8% were virologically suppressed (Abidjan: 45.4%, Lomé: 52.5%, p <0.01). The 24-month combined outcome was favorable for 45% (29.6% in Abidjan and 61.4% in Lomé, p < 0.01). Adjusted for baseline variables, the 24-month outcome was worse in Lomé in those who had been disclosed for >2 years compared to those who had not been disclosed to [aOR = 0.21, 95% CI (0.05–0.84), p = 0.03].Conclusions: The frequency of HIV-disclosure improved over time and differed across countries but remained low among West African APHIV. Overall, the 24-month outcomes were poor. Disclosure before the study was a marker of a poor 24-month outcome in Lomé. Context-specific responses are urgently needed to improve adolescent care and reach the UNAIDS 90% target of virological success.
